hammer55; what I used was the same size as the 4" vinyl fence post. It did not slip over, it sits atop making it very easy to use the hinges and clasp. I used a small swivel hinge hasp lock and a small hitch pin clip to keep it closed. Bought everything at Home Depot. I hope this helps.

I was just at the RV Show in Portland Oregon last weekend.
After looking at all the new "stuff" I have some ideas on what I want to do for my wife's cup holder or lack thereof... also I'm going to do an outside bar / refrigerator combo in one of the storage compartments...
additionally I'm going to add (2) fantastic fans (bedroom and bathroom) and (3) smoked vent covers.
Pictures to follow....
